Hyperspaces of Peano continua are Hubert cubes
Hyperspaces of Peano continua of euclidean spaces
If X is a space then L(X) denotes the subspace of C(X) consisting of all Peano (sub)continua. We prove that for n ≥ 3 the space is homeomorphic to , where B denotes the pseudo-boundary of the Hilbert cube Q.
Hyperspaces of polyhedra are Hilbert cubes
Hyperspaces of two-dimensional continua
Let X be a compact metric space and let C(X) denote the space of subcontinua of X with the Hausdorff metric. It is proved that every two-dimensional continuum X contains, for every n ≥ 1, a one-dimensional subcontinuum with . This implies that X contains a compact one-dimensional subset T with dim C (T) = ∞.
Hyperspaces of universal curves and 2-cells are true -sets
It is shown that the following hyperspaces, endowed with the Hausdorff metric, are true absolute -sets: (1) ℳ ²₁(X) of Sierpiński universal curves in a locally compact metric space X, provided ℳ ²₁(X) ≠ ∅ ; (2) ℳ ³₁(X) of Menger universal curves in a locally compact metric space X, provided ℳ ³₁(X) ≠ ∅ ; (3) 2-cells in the plane.
